Immediate Dental Implants
South Ogden, UT
 Do you have a tooth that has been compromised, either by decay or an injury? Thanks to advances in dental technology, our periodontists and team can offer immediate dental implant placement after the removal of a compromised tooth, starting the healing process early and getting your normal appearance and dental function back to normal as soon as possible. For over 80% of cases of a single missing tooth, our practice is capable of immediate dental implant placement.
Dental implants are lasting, stable tooth replacements that can be used to replace one missing tooth, several missing teeth or complete arches of teeth. The dental implant post, which is a screw made of titanium, is surgically placed in the jawbone at the site of the missing tooth. It replaces the missing tooth root and ensures that your dental restoration is stable. A period of healing is then often required to allow the bone to begin to bond with the biocompatible post.
Following this healing period, our periodontist will place the dental implant restoration, or replacement tooth, which fits on top of the implant post. Depending on which teeth are missing and your personal dental needs, your implant restoration might be a dental crown, dental bridge, or a complete or partial denture. Each dental implant restoration is custom made to fit your smile comfortably and aesthetically.
Replacing a missing tooth can restore your smile to optimal health, function and appearance. A dental implant is a great option for restoring your smile because the implant is designed to look, function and feel just like your natural teeth, and with proper care, it can last a lifetime.
